Abstract
Herein we describe the synthesis of a new class of chiral phosphine‐oxazolines and their application as ligands in iridium‐catalyzed hydrogenations. Mechanistic aspects of olefin hydrogenation with this class of iridium catalysts are discussed and a selectivity model to help rationalize the results obtained is also presented.

## Abstract A library of organometallic compounds derived from primary and secondary amines cyclometalated by ruthenium(II), rhodium(III) and iridi‐ um(III) was tested in the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of a number of ketones and imines. All compounds displayed high catalytic activity for the
